Tips for hiring cars in the Gold Coast
  • Read the fine print in the Terms of Conditions when booking a hire car!
  • Australian or International drivers licences are required and usually drivers must be over 21 years with higher insurance premiums for those under 25.

  • In Australia we drive in right hand drive cars along the left hand side of the road!  

  • Manual transmissions are cheaper to hire than automatic transmission.  

  • Most cars use unleaded petrol not diesel - but diesel is becoming more popular.  Always check before you fill up!

If you don't want to drive whilst here on holiday there are many other transport options.
